Although Kumārajīva posed no real danger to the Murong family, his display of the Living Sword Manual in Suzhou did bring considerable negative impact to the family.

"Kumārajīva's martial arts skills are not low, and we have to think of ways to deal with him as he chases us all the way."

After considering the case of Cao Cao, he decided to use the intelligence networks of the Murong family and the Beggars' Sect to keep track of Kumārajīva's whereabouts.

He roughly knew what had happened, but he didn't expect that after being tricked by A'Zhu's disguise in Suzhou, Kumārajīva would be so furious that he would want to cause a scene in Suzhou.

However, upon learning that Shaolin Temple was holding a gathering of heroes, Kumārajīva, who considered himself a hero, also rushed to Shaoshi Mountain.

"Shaolin Temple rarely holds a gathering of heroes, but this time they've really gone all out. It seems they're determined to eliminate Xiao Feng!"

Over the next few days, Cao Cao gathered intelligence while simultaneously calming Duan Zhengchun and his entourage.

Ruan Xingzhu was particularly excited after learning that Azhu might be her daughter.

Although he had countless reasons for abandoning his daughter and was determined to ignore everything, he did not give up.

But after actually learning the news, Ruan Xingzhu's maternal instincts still overflowed.

"Young Master Murong, how has A'Zhu been all these years?"

Although Cao Cao did not say exactly what A'Zhu did, it is clear that she was a girl who was sold to a family in the south at a young age and could only be a slave.

Thinking about how hard her daughter was working, Ruan Xingzhu deeply regretted her past actions.

"A-Zhu is very smart and learns things quickly. She gets along well with the other sisters in Yanziwu, Suzhou. I have always treated A-Zhu like a younger sister."

"From what Young Master Murong has said, A'Zhu must be my eldest daughter, and my youngest daughter is two years younger. I wonder where she is!"

Just as Ruan Xingzhu was talking to Cao Cao about her youngest daughter, a commotion broke out downstairs in the restaurant.

Four or five burly men surrounded a petite, mischievous girl dressed in purple, shouting that they wanted to take her back.

"Junior Sister, you stole Master's treasure! Surrender now!"

"Second Senior Brother, which eye of yours saw me steal it? Besides, Master dotes on me so much, isn't it normal for him to give me one or two treasures?"

Upstairs, Ruan Xingzhu felt a pang of pity seeing so many people bullying a little girl.

Moreover, the little girl looked somewhat familiar, so he said, "Young Master Murong, please help this little girl. She looks so pitiful, being bullied by so many people."

"Sister Xingzhu, let's listen to this again. I don't think things are that simple. This young girl isn't weak either; I think she comes from a martial arts background."

"Does she know martial arts?"

"I think so, and he's even learned a vicious and ruthless martial art!"

As she spoke, the girl in purple took out a bag of powder and sprinkled it throughout the restaurant, where the diners watching were all affected.

In an instant, everyone in the crowd was unbearably itchy, a truly unexpected misfortune.

In the chaos, the girl in purple tried to escape, but someone blocked the doorway beforehand.

"Second Brother, your detoxification skills have improved!"

"Junior Sister's poison skills aren't weak either, but you've only learned the basics!"

Seeing that things were not going well, the girl in purple ran upstairs and bumped into Cao Cao.

The mischievous woman in purple cleverly hid the Divine Wood King Cauldron in a corner, while handing the empty bag to Cao Cao. Her ability to divert hatred was quite remarkable.

He then addressed the catching crowd, saying, "This is my brother-in-law. The item is on him. Go ahead and ask him for it if you dare!"

The man in yellow with a lion-like nose and a wide mouth was about forty years old. As the second senior brother of the Xingxiu Sect, he was quite knowledgeable.

Seeing the imposing presence of the young man upstairs, who seemed absolutely not to be underestimated.

He was also unsure why his junior sister called him "brother-in-law."

However, he could not disobey his master's orders. If he failed to capture his junior sister this time, not only would he have a hard time explaining to his master, but even his senior brother, Zhaixingzi, would not let him off the hook!

"I am Lion's Roar, a disciple of the Starry Sky Sect. I have come in the name of my master, the Starry Sky Immortal, to capture the traitor Azi. Please make way for me."

"The Xingxiu Sect isn't a sect from the Western Regions, so what brings them to the Central Plains? Are they here to participate in the Shaolin Heroes' Gathering?"

"Shaolin Temple invites heroes and warriors from all over the world. My esteemed master, the Starry Sky Immortal, possesses unparalleled martial arts skills and boundless magical power, and is naturally among the heroes..."

Lion Roar started praising Xingxiu Laoxian. Although Xingxiu Laoxian was infamous in the martial arts world, it had to be said that Xingxiu Laoxian's strength was indeed remarkable.

The Starry Night Old Monster went to Shaolin Temple simply to sit back and watch the tigers fight, see if he could pick up any scraps, and incidentally enhance the Starry Night Sect's reputation in the Central Plains martial arts world.

"Little girl, did you steal something from the Starry Constellation Sect?"

"Brother-in-law, I didn't steal anything! They're framing me! Why don't you search me?"

The girl in purple approached Cao Cao, attempting to slip through the gate, but who was Cao Cao?

Unperturbed, Ruan Xingzhu helped search Azi's body. During the search, Ruan Xingzhu inadvertently saw the character "Duan" tattoo on Azi's shoulder and was instantly stunned.

Although we didn't see the gold lock that was close to her body, we could roughly deduce from the girl's age and appearance that Azi was her biological daughter.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Xingzhu learned the whereabouts of her two daughters within a single day. Was it divine mercy or was the young master Murong standing before her a benevolent spirit bringing good news?

The eldest daughter, Azhu, was still on her way to reunite with her, while the other was already right in front of her.

"Sister Xingzhu, did you find anything?"

"No, I've searched everywhere. Are you sure you're not mistaken about something?"

Ruan Xingzhu was initially just pitiful, but now she stands by the purple-clad girl's side as one of his own. Cao Cao was a little confused, but he still supported her.

"Senior Lion's Roar, since we've already searched the young girl and found nothing belonging to your Star Constellation Sect, there's no need to be so ruthless!"

"May I ask who you are?"

"Murong Fu of Gusu!"

"I'll take my leave!"

The Xingxiu Sect is not entirely composed of incompetent individuals; according to their sect's rules, the most capable rise to the top.

It's no exaggeration that Lion's Roar was able to become the second senior brother; at least he knew that the famous Southern Murong was not someone a disciple of his sect could deal with.

Even if the Starry Sky Immortal were to travel to the Central Plains, Murong Fu would be on the list of those he would be wary of.

Upon hearing the news that Murong Fu had blocked the capture of Azi, Lion Roar had to go back and report it to his senior brother, Zhaixingzi!

The lion roars at the lion, knowing he can't win but still insists on fighting; that's foolish!

"Senior Lion's Roar, please compensate for the shop's losses before you leave, and also provide the antidote for the innocent civilians!"

Lion's Roar wouldn't even listen to what an ordinary person said, but this was Murong Fu of Gusu, a name so famous that he had heard of him even in the Western Regions.

Moreover, their attitude was absolutely on point, addressing him as a senior and giving him plenty of respect.

As the second senior brother of the Xingxiu Sect, he also had to give Murong Fu face.

Lion's Roar's strength lies in his ability to detoxify; Ah Zi's poison attacks are nothing to him.

Therefore, he stirred his fingers on the water tank for a while, using the unique detoxification technique of the Xingxiu Sect.

"Each person who has been poisoned should drink one bowl to detoxify!"

"Thank you so much, hero! Thank you so much for the medicine!"
